DCUO Attracts One Million New Players Following Free-to-Play Transition

I think it’s safe to say DC Universe Online’s adoption of the free-to-play model has been a success. Despite some teething problems with loading screen issues and queue times, SOE’s superhero MMO has proven a hit, with new players eager to see what DCUO has to offer.

“In just one week alone, 1 million new players have joined DCUO with a 50/50 split between PC and PS3,” said Lorin Jameson, Executive Director of Development, SOE Austin. “We have a lot of exciting things coming up for players to enjoy in the game and are thrilled at the initial enthusiasm for the game’s free-to-play transition.”

If you haven’t checked out DCUO yet, now’s the time. Just head over to the brand new website to download the client for the PC, or to learn how to connect through the PlayStation Network.

    I bought the game back when it came out and enjoyed it for a couple months (the first was free)… but as with most MMOs I try… I never seem to get into them enough to justify a $15/mo price tag. Now that it’s free, perhaps I’ll jump back in from time to time.
